2 years ago from today, I quit nicotine. When I first quit, staying that way for a week, month, etc sounded like it was going to be the biggest challenge of my life, and I wasn't wrong.
Luckily, I found this website called Kill The Can (
www.killthecan.org), and it taught me to just stop worrying about tomorrow, and simply focus on staying quit one day at a time. Now, 2 years later, it's one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life.
Thinking back on this, it reminds me of Matthew 6:34 in the NKJV which reads: "Therefore do not worry about
tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things.
Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."
Being a member of Kill The Can, as well as being a member of Christ's Church, has taught me to really appreciate this verse. Since I've been using it and thinking of it daily, especially for the last 732 days, I feel like I've grown so much in maturity, and I also feel like I've grown closer to Christ than ever before.
Having said that, simply forget about tomorrow. There's no need getting all bent out of shape over things that may never even happen, because there's no telling what tomorrow may bring. Just enjoy the moment. Enjoy today. Focus on improving your life today. Focus on showing love to others today. Focus on making sure you're doing everything you can to get you and everyone else to Heaven today.
Don't put any of it off. Whether you've been putting off quitting drinking, quitting dipping, or even putting off being committed to Christ, today is the day that you should be focused on, because who knows if there will even be a tomorrow.
